Netflix has released the castlist for Joe Cornish’s adaptation of Jonathan Stroud’s Lockwood & Co, which is arriving later this year.

Ruby Stokes (Bridgerton) leads the cast alongside newcomers Cameron Chapman and Ali Hadji-Heshmati. Lockwood & Co also stars Ivanno Jeremiah (Humans), Luke Treadaway (Ordeal by Innocence) and Morven Christie (The Bay).

In London, where the most gifted teenage ghost-hunters venture nightly into perilous combat with deadly spirits, amidst the many corporate, adult-run agencies, one stands alone: independent of any commercial imperative or adult supervision – a tiny startup, run by two teenage boys and a newly arrived, supremely psychically gifted girl, a renegade trio destined to unravel a mystery that will change the course of history: Lockwood & Co.

Ruby Stokes will play Lucy Carlyle with Cameron Chapman as Anthony Lockwood, Ali Hadji-Heshmati as George Karim, Ivanno Jeremiah as Inspector Barnes, Jack Bandeira as Quill Kipps, Luke Treadaway as The Golden Blade, Morven Christie as Penelope Fittes, Ben Crompton as Julius Winkman, Hayley Konadu as Flo Bones, Rhianna Dorris as Kat Godwin, Paddy Holland as Bobby Vernon. Joy Wilkinson, Ed Hime and Kara Smith have also penned episodes.
